Journal of the International Randonneurs - Edition 1989
80 pages
Not available

This 1989 edition is the first of two issues
of the Journal of the International Randonneurs. There is no
publisher or editorial credit anywhere in the booklet, but this
is probably the work of American randonneur James Konski. There
is some general information about randonneur cycling, but the
focus is on Paris Brest Paris. The publication is called "International",
but there is only token non-American content. There are a few
pictures, but they are poor reproductions.

There is a length history of PBP by Phil
McCray, as well as contributions by speedy luminaries Scott Dickson,
Lon Haldeman and Kay Ryschon. There is an excerpt from Clifford
Grave's My Life On Two Wheels, and an account of the 1931 race
version of PBP by its winner Sir Hubert Opperman. It would be
nice if much of this material was more available.
